Saturday’s Women’s March in Washington DC, designed to send a message to Donald Trump and his administration, most assuredly would not have happened had Hillary Clinton won. After all, they wouldn’t be “hurting and scared” if Trump had been defeated.
So, why is Hillary Clinton not listed on the list of “revolutionary leaders who paved the way” for them and are #WhyWeMarch?
It’s a long list, and it’s puzzling that the same people (we’re assuming) who were touting Hillary as the “most qualified candidate ever” now don’t find her worthy of inclusion on a list of those who “fight for our freedoms.” As speaker after speaker parroted at the DNC last summer, hasn’t selfless Hillary spent her entire life fighting for our (women, of course – masculinity is baaad) freedoms?
Hmm, fighting for us. That sounds familiar…

Aww, from the Deputy Communications Director of Emily’s List:

What happened to all the Hillary love?
Well, there HAS been a backlash against the omission by women who are still “with her.”

And some see a conspiracy:
How can we support a @womensmarch when @HillaryClinton is NOT an honoree?! Did @KellyannePolls organize this?! https://t.co/xdQY3A78RM

Wise Women for Hillary, an online advocacy group, sent an open letter to the march’s organizers and have started a petition asking the organizers to add Hillary’s name, but the group has not responded.
Maybe because her campaign was an epic fail and she lost to a reality TV star?
